conversion of steam at 100 C to water at 100 C :

m = mass of the steam = 50 g

L = latent heat of condensation of steam to water = 79.7 J/g

Heat released in conversion of steam to water is given as

Q₁ = mL

inserting the values

Q₁ = (50) (79.7)

Q₁ = 3985 cal


conversion of water at 100 C to water at 37 C :

ΔT = change in temperature = 100 - 37 = 63 C

c = specific heat of water = 1 cal/(gC)

m = mass of water = 50 g

Heat released in change of temperature is given as

Q₂ = m c ΔT

Q₂ = 50 x 1 x 63

Q₂ = 3150 cal

total heat released is given as

Q = Q₁ + Q₂

Q = 3985 + 3150

Q = 7135 cal

As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:

Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ

Give the correct balanced equation for the single replacement reaction of magnesium with aluminum oxide
diamong [38]

Answer:

Al2O3 + 3Mg ===》 3MgO + 2Al

Explanation:

Reaction of aluminium oxide with magnesium metal would form magnesium oxide and aluminium metal.

Balancing the stoichiometric equation, the number of atoms at the reactant must be equal to the number of atoms at the product so that law of conservation of matter must hold.

Al203 + 3Mg ====》 3MgO + 2Al

2 aluminium at reactant = 2 aluminium at product

3 oxygen at reactant = 3 oxygen at product

3 magnesium at reactant = 3 magnesium at product.

A projectile is launched horizontally from a height of 8.0 m. The projectile travels 6.5 m before hitting the ground.
spayn [35]

Answer:

5.09 m/s

Explanation:

Use the height to find the time it takes to land:

y = y₀ + v₀ᵧ t + ½ gt²

0 = 8.0 m + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.28 s

Now use the horizontal distance to find the initial velocity.

x = x₀ + v₀ₓ t + ½ at²

6.5 m = 0 m + v₀ (1.28 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.28 s)²

v₀ = 5.09 m/s
